Recounting an old tale of his life, back during his struggling days, Anupam Kher narrated a significant incident of his life and thanked his friend Rajan Lal for helping him during his time of need, calling his contribution invaluable to his career.

Taking to Instagram, the veteran actor posted a video of himself with Rajan and said: 바카라œFriends, today I바카라™d like to introduce you to a very dear friend of mine Mr. Rajan Lal. Everybody already knows him, and his role in helping my career has been invaluable. I remember the times when I was struggling in the lanes of Mumbai, it was Mr. Rajan who came to my help, and I바카라™m extremely thankful for that. This is particularly because no one helps you when you are at your worst.바카라

He added: 바카라œWhen I was constantly being pushed around in the lanes of the city, it was him who offered me food and confidence to carry on. Today, I am meeting him after 39 years at his residence in Dubai.바카라 Turning to his friend, he asked: 바카라œWhat do you remember about me from back then?바카라

Smiling, Rajan replied: 바카라œMy memory of Anupam is that in the old days he used to wear a white kurta pyjama, he used to travel by auto and rang the bell of my house. I was living on the ground floor, and my place was small. It was like a garage, or an outhouse kind of thing; I used to invite him and give him breakfast. He did everything at my house, his food, shelter was all at my house.Whatever his need be, I used to listen and help when I can.바카라

The senior actor interjected and said: 바카라œHe used to listen to me a lot.바카라

Continuing, Rajan said: 바카라œYeah I used to listen to him, and I was really taken by his passion and dedication. The man that he is today, it is because of his passion. And then 바카라˜Saaransh바카라™ happened, and Mr. Bhatt kicked him out. I used to be in NFBC back then, so I offered Rs.10 lakh back then which I said could be used to make a good film, and then 바카라˜Saaransh바카라™ happened.

바카라œI remember all the struggling actors like Sanjay Dutt, Anil Kapoor, Kulbhusan Kharbanda, they all used to crash at my place, this little garage, so those days in the 1980s were some of my best days ever. Today, I look upon Anupam and where he has reached with his passion and dedication, how he is so successful having done over around 540 films I think, I could not be prouder of him," he added.

The two men, despite meeting after so many years were as close as ever with 바카라˜The Kashmir Files바카라™ actor concluding: 바카라œI think many of you can relate to this, it바카라™s because no one helps you during your struggles, and those who do they become a part of your lives, they shape it no matter where you go. So I am extremely thankful to Rajan, and where I am today it is in great part because of him. Jai Ho!바카라

He captioned: 바카라œRajan Lal; a friend, a helper I met this time in Dubai after 39 years. In 1982 when I was looking for work in Mumbai and the conditions weren't good, those days director #Mahesh Bhatt lived in a small flat under his house. I always had a good one!

바카라œThey used to treat breakfast etc too! Basically, he was always good to me! And then #바카라™Saaransh happened바카라™!! But I never forgot Rajan바카라™s kindness and generosity! Meeting him after 39 years in Dubai felt so so good. Thank you dear Rajan for your kindness in my days of hardship," he added.
